I know this question has probably been asked many, many times, and I'm sorry for that, but SWIM took 2 tabs of 180~200 mic LSD recently at ~11 am and couldn't sleep until 4:30 am the next day. SWIM is attending a 2 day long festival at the end of the year, and needs advice on how to sleep after a trip on the first day, as SWIM values his brain too much to roll multiple days. Does anyone have experience with Benzos? Would prefer natural remedies but SWIM is an already poor sleeper and feels it to be important to get a healthy sleep before a roll.

Again sorry for asking the question that has probably been answered many times, much love guys
 
You really don't have many options I mean its either force it with drugs (alcohol cannabis, benzos, ect) or meditate and hope you get relaxed enough.

I like to meditate clearing your head of all thaugut on acid is amazing. Sleep will come with time and not much else
 
I don't like to recommend benzo's as they are habit forming. But, there is nothing better than taking a bar after a long day of being spun at a festival. It ensures a solid few hours of sleep rather than tossing and turning all night. But, I will say I love the introspection of a lsd comedown/afterglow. I love reflecting on my long trip. So taking a benzo, will completely cancel out that part of the psychedelic experience. But, to fully enjoy a festival you need to get some sleep each night or you will be drained.Which proves to be a challenge for most people. Though, I will say I can fall asleep on LSD, even high dosages. Not when I am peaking but, after the peak sure. I use to be wired for a while and could not catch a rest but, these days after endless amounts of LSD it's become easy.
 
i would say most times i have had trouble sleeping i usually just hit cann. till i cannot anymore.
its nice just eating a shit ton trying to counteract lol
i suggest rasberries
 
Sometimes I like a benzo (1 mg lorazepam) after a long trip. Personally, they are not habit forming, and I see no problem with it.
 
You're at a festival. If you're not going to sleep, you're not going to sleep. If you want healthy sleep before rolling, using medications or alcohol to get you to sleep will not get you that.
 
I found at festivals I would dance so much all night that even after a long night of LSD, cocaine, and TONS of MDMA and ketamine, that I had no problem falling asleep.
Otherwise there's no chance I would be able to sleep with aid from other drugs.
 
Benzos are going to be the absolute best thing. I recommend xanax as its short acting and more sedating than most others. Personally I never take any psychoactives without a benzo on hand and in fact keep 3-4 1mg pills of etizolam in my wallet at all times for all kinds of contingencies. As long you you only use them for trip come downs chances of addiction and habituation are pretty slim.
 
Festivals require some clever utilization of substances. I've alway had my own way. I usually just smoked and had a few beers the first several nights and the last nigh (usually a Saturday) I would dose full on. Usually the act I wanted to really see closes out a Sat night.

I have had friends that take a little acid (a sliver of a paper), mix some shrooms in. Take small doses every night to which that works the first night or two. Then they are burnt for the last night with loads of tolerance. I never understood "slivers" or mixing certain things.

Speaking of going balls to the wall to quickly, I remember the Oakland Coliseum in Dec of 1986. The Grateful Dead comeback shows when Garcia got healthy. At that point I would still trip consecutive nights in a row. One hit (acid) the first night. Two the second night and four on the third night. That worked well. But first night a friend of mine brough a really obnoxious friend with him. Ed. I remember Ed. He'd get into your face and say "do 3 the first night", "don't be a wimp". Well Ed did 3 of some really strong blotter the first night and I stuck to my one. We found Ed at the car after the show. He had to leave the coliseum before the second set because he was too high. I enjoyed the show at a nice level and was fine for the next night by just doubling.

Yep, it's tricky getting the most out of dosing when an event runs several nights. So now if I do attend I make the last night the blow out and sleep all the other nights previous just fine. But I guess at this point I should admit some opiate was always handy at the end of the last night to come down. But that's a different story.
